## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For Counterpunchers!
*by D***X on May 21, 2015*

I am basically a 'junk-ball' pitcher. Persson's book is excellent. Its structures and bob & weave counterattacks are ideal for keeping your opponent off balance and neutralizing their pre-game prep, especially at the Club level. How many folks do you know who invest significant study in the Pirc/Modern? Not many. This is a massive treatment. I always steer my new students away from these 'give the heart-of-the-plate to the pitcher' strategies, but once you've invested the time in understanding them and developing a feel for them, you will find yourself more relaxed and comfortable than many of your more experienced opponents. My own fascination with this opening goes back to the days of Canadian GM Duncan Suttles (Subject of a three volume treatment Chess on the Edge) when it was derisively referred to as "the Rat." You may bleed points while you're learning to play on the first three ranks, but your return on investment will be the fun you having mud-wrestling like Duncan. Added bonus - what you learn can be applied from both sides of tyhe board.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like White, "but"
*by E***R on September 1, 2025*

The author makes 1...d6/...g6 systems with ...a6 look playable. Hikaru does it online. After going through this book pretty thoroughly, admittedly without an engine on, it looked convincing enough for something between equality and slightly worse for Black, with complications. For the last third of the book or so, I skimmed, seeing the groups of moves. Instructive for me, although since I don't intend to play this in anything other than fast chess, there might be better uses of time than checking the theory in great detail, so I don't regret skimming parts. Especially since the analysis is ten years old. I'm sure there could be improvements, but I get the idea, and how this could be playable for Black.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Twice as Good!
*by L***L on November 10, 2017*

I have the first issue of this book and this one is twice as good.
